Benjamin Whitcomb’s Rangers
The cover drawn by William Wigham reproduces a typical uniform worn by Benjamin Whitcomb’s Rangers, whose life is the focus of this issue.
Whitcomb’s first experience of war was during the French and Indian War (1754-1763) with later participation, in the expedition against Montreal at which time he was promoted to Lieutenant.
Later promoted to Major, he and his men were leaders in the American Revolution (1776). A full account of his life and accomplishments are described in detail.
Last, there is an informative section describing a historically accurate restoration of the Rangers, recreated as a non-profit educational organization in 1975.
